Product Launch Prompt Workflow
A sequential prompt workflow for product launches: problem definition through MVP scope, risk register, milestone roadmap, launch checklist, and post-launch review.
Overview
Launches attempted in one prompt produce launch-shaped documents — plausible plans with no scope discipline, no risk register, and no rollback condition. The workflow version runs launch work the way product teams do: the problem gets stated before the solution, requirements get acceptance criteria, the MVP gets a cut list with reasoning, risks get early-warning signals, and the launch checklist includes the condition under which you roll back. This resource loads the full advanced launch sequence.
Workflow
-
Build the loaded workflow
Advanced complexity loads all ten phases, including the risk register and post-launch review.
-
Hold the no-solution line
Step 1 bans solution language deliberately — solutions stated as problems are how scope creep starts.
-
Defend the cut list
The MVP step forces explicit cuts with reasoning. The cut list is the scope discipline.
-
Set the rollback before launch
The launch checklist includes the rollback condition — decided now, while heads are cool.
Why This Works
- Problem-before-solution ordering keeps the launch tied to a user reality
- Explicit cut lists make scope decisions reviewable instead of silent
- Go/no-go checkpoints and rollback conditions are what separate plans from hopes
Best for
- Product teams without a standardized launch process
- Founders running their first structured launch
- Feature launches to existing customers where trust is at stake
Not for
- Designing the product requirements assistant itself — that's the System Prompt Generator
- A single launch announcement email — one prompt suffices
Use cases
- Planning a feature or product launch as a checkable sequence
- Producing an MVP scope with an explicit, defensible cut list
- Building the risk register and rollback condition launches usually skip
